Answer:
So 144 divided by 9 equals 16 so the length is 16. Cause 16 x 9 = 144 Your Welcome !
Step-by-step explanation:
5x=2x+24
5x-2x=24
3x=24
x=24/3
x=8
Now you can verify by putting 8 in the x :)
Not sure if this is the right answer but try math-way it helps me a lot.
Solutions
1) The first step is to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of <span>3/8,1/8,1/3,1/4
</span>⇒ Start Listing Multiples
List out all multiples of each denominator, and find the first common one.
8: <span><span>8,16,24</span>
</span>
8 : <span>8,16,24
</span>
3 : <span>3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24
</span>
4 : <span><span>4,8,12,16,20,24</span>
</span>
Therefore, the LCD is <span>24
</span>⇒ By Prime Factors
List all prime factors of each denominator, and find the union of these primes.
8 : <span>2,2,2</span>
8 : <span>2,2,2</span>
3 : 3
4 : <span><span>2,2</span>
</span>
Therefore, the LCD is <span>2×2×2×3=24
</span>Make the denominators the same as the LCD
<span><span><span>3×3 / </span><span>8×3 </span></span>+<span><span>1×3 / </span><span>8×3 </span></span>−<span><span>1×8 / </span><span>3×8 </span></span>+<span><span>1×6 / </span><span>4×6
</span></span></span>Simplify. Denominators are now the same
<span><span>9 / 24</span>+<span>3 / 24</span>−<span>8 / 24</span>+<span>6 / 24
</span></span>Join all the denominators
<span><span>9+3−8+6 / </span>24
</span>Simplify
<span>10 / 24
</span>Simplify fraction 10 / <span>24</span>
<span>5 / 12</span>
